Volkswagen: Think Blue. Symphony. Commercial
Song: Wouldn't It Be Nice by Tiziano Lamberti (Italian musician) (Original version by The Beach Boys)

Lyrics used in the commercial
Wouldn't it be nice if we were older
Then we wouldn't have to wait so long
And wouldn't it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong

You know its gonna make it that much better
When we can say goodnight and stay together

Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up
In the morning when the day is new
And after having spent the day together
Hold each other close the whole night through

Happy times together we've been spending
I wish that every kiss was neverending
Wouldn't it be nice... ...

That’s why we launched Think Blue: our commitment to achieving sustainable mobility through technology and cars that don’t compromise performance.

Volkswagen 2012 Beetle High Five Commercial Song The clapping song by Shirley Ellis.

The 2012 Beetle looks different from models past. We think that’s a good thing. Not that we don’t love the old Bugs—they’ll always have a place in our hearts. It’s just that, well, this new Beetle really is something special. And part of what makes it so special is the obvious connection to its automotive ancestors. From the very first glance, you know that it’s a Beetle.

Song: The clapping song by Shirley Ellis

We sent automotive genealogist (OK, Volkswagen Digital Marketing Manager) Brian Chee to Berlin to get a closer look at the 2012 Beetle and examine what’s different and what makes it a Beetle through and through. Here’s what he had to say:

3, 6, 9
The goose drank wine
The monkey chew tobacco on the streetcar line
The line broke, the monkey got choked
And they all went to heaven in a little rowboat

Clap pat - clap pat - clap pat - clap slap
Clap pat! clap your hand...
Pat it on your partner hand... right hand
Clap pat! clap your hand...
Cross it with your left arm
Pat your partner left palm
Clap pat! clap your hand...
Pat your partner right palm
And a right palm again
Clap slap! clap your hand...
Slap your thigh and sing a little song go...

My Mother told me... ...

Yep. You’re right. The 2012 Beetle lacks both a chrome bumper and a split rear window, and its engine is up front. But that doesn’t mean the all-new version wasn’t inspired by one of the bestselling cars ever. In fact, after seeing them side-by-side, I can tell you that the family resemblance is immediately apparent.

From the exterior design to interior features meant to reflect the original model’s smart and simple purpose, the inspiration drawn from the past–and applied with a modern interpretation–is clear. Read more >>

Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.

And though you're gone,
You're with me every single day, believe me.

Days when you can't see wrong from right.
You took my life,
But then I knew that very soon you'd leave me... ...

Song: Don’t know yet. What is the song?

BlueMotion Technologies represent the cleanest, most energy-efficient cars in our range. So when you see this logo you'll know we're talking about ways to cut your emissions and driving costs.

Efficiency starts at the very core of our cars with their engines and gear boxes. Innovative technologies such as TSI, TDI and DSG are major contributors to driving efficiency and set a solid foundation to develop from. They play an important part in keeping Volkswagen at the forefront of economical engineering.

Advanced engines such as the powerful TSI and the high-torque diesel TDI, ensure outstanding fuel consumption and fewer pollutants together with pure driving pleasure. The impressive DSG Dual-Clutch gearbox offers even greater fuel economy. It has the convenience of an automatic gearbox and the agility, dynamic performance and superior consumption figures of a manual gearbox. So being efficient doesn't have to take the fun out of driving.

Our engineers have developed a series of innovations specially geared towards conserving energy and reducing fuel costs without compromising your driving pleasure.

We've created modified engine management software that makes our engines run even more efficiently. We've also been able to reduce the engine idle speed so you emit less C02 and use less fuel. Our BlueMotion gearboxes have been reconfigured with longer ratios in higher gears for the most economical fuel consumption. Intelligent technology tells you when to change gear for optimum driving efficiency.

BlueMotion is a tradename for certain car models from the Volkswagen Group with an emphasis on higher fuel efficiency.
